Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from History for Ready Reference, Vol. 6 of 6: From the Best Historians, Biographers, and Specialists
The six years that have passed since the original five volumes of this compilation were published, in 1894 - 5, have been filled with events so remarkable and changes so revolutionary in political and social conditions that the work has seemed to need an extension to cover them. The wish for such an extension, expressed by many people, led to the preparation of a new volume, in which all the lines of the historical record are taken from the points at which they were dropped in the early volumes, and are carried to the end of the Nineteenth Century, and beyond it, into the opening months of the present year.
